I've had a busy day: replacing one of my hard drives, switching out of Prepar3d V2.5 to V3.
Watching a YouTube video about the development of the DC-3, and then reading a VERY useful website.
I started with this webpage - Landing ... FSX.
And that got me to thinking about landing a DC-3 on the 2,609 foot runway in my adopted airport - Mears Field (3W5) in Concrete, Washington.
I know that this isn't anything that real DC-3 pilots couldn't do easily, but I'm not that good of a pilot.
Heck, when I first started with FSX I COULD NOT land a Cessna 172 on the main 10,506 foot long runway at KPHL, Philadelphia International Airport.
It didn't help that I didn't know how to brake.
So here I go. Up, out, around, and back. Landing my Douglas C-47 Skytrain V2 in about 1,000 - 1,200 feet. Thanks to the website above.
The trees look closer than they really are.
This purple tint is part of the plane. It was the same in FSX too.
Turn around
Concrete, Washington ahead.
Runway now in site.
Wheels hitting the ground.
On the money!
A complete stop just before the middle of the runway in two attempts.
If they would fix that purple tint I'd use this plane much more.
